3) Kevin Durant is one of the most prolific shooters in the league and the ball comes up 5 feet short -- even if you are "unsure" of whether there was illegal contact or not because of your angle, you can come in a little late and pick that up by watching the trajectory of the ball.

#3 is completely rediculous. Contact could have been on the ball or hand. If you don't see it, don't guess.
